i am going to a agree with charlie up to a point. i think it is true that more planning has happened in the years since i complained that the lawyers were getting in the way of fall planning. now they're just sitting in a way of detail planning. i -- you know, i have read the speech. you read carefully you get the strong impression he thinks it would be questionable under international law to launch a cyber counterattack from any country other than ours. and, you know, these flash, if that is the way we fight the war i think anybody we are fighting with will know how to prevent our attack from reaching them. the only way you can launch these attacks, exactly. it's by flipping your weapons across the borders the river variety of channels which will include neutral nations to whom we will not give notice which if you take a physical analogy to the laws of war is pretty questionable. i gathered that harold does. so we are still interfering with war, with strategies that might win wars or at least allowing us to fight wars that a more de

[laughter] i have a few points to make and questions to raise with "witness," and how communism is relevant today. first, the place where "witness ," i think, is clearly relevant, and that's where we deal with the great communist power of the day, china. chambers -- this is a passage i like, chambers wrote, "what i had been fell from me like dirty rags. it was not communism, but the materialist modern mind, the shroud of which it spun about the spirit of man, paralyzing the instaipght for the soul of god denying the reality of the soul and birthright on the mystery on which mere knowledge falters and shatters at every step." we now watch the soulless cheese nigh communism party battle chinese christians, buddhists, and believe that if they

my wife abby and i adopted our son charlie from russia a number of years ago now. after visits to russia and as we were leaving the courthouse the day that our -- the court procedures were accomplished, we were in the car with people who had helped us with that adoption who represented an organization here in the united states, in this case the gladney organization in texas, and they got a call that four of their fellow organizations had just been decertified in russia, and they were decertified for some technical reason as their papers regarding all of the adoptions they had done were reviewed, and at least one error was found in one paper somewhere. mr. president, over the course of the next 12 months as every single agency came up -- and this is about six years ago -- as every single agency came up for review, every one of them had a problem that wound up with them being disqualified. at the end of that year, there wasn't a single american organization that could be helpful to an american family with a russian adoption because that was the policy the government

. >> hello, my name is charlie markel. i was most recently with the senate home security committee were at work, among other things, on the fort hood inquiry. so i know a little bit about extremism. i want to thank all of you on the panel for your presentation and service. the israeli-palestinian dispute is a huge driver of anti-american extremism. not just in terrorist groups, but the population at large. in a lot of places where we have friends. i have a three-part question. the first is what can we do to encourage a resolution in the second part is how can we do that successfully. the third part is in regards to the strategic benefits and if we can succeed. the map it is an extraordinarily difficult question to resolve. i have spent an inordinate amount of my life was israelis and palestinians, trying to reason with them, and can't claim any measure of success. that being said, i think we are substantially different from where we have been in the past. we know about israel and the palestinians. president clinton laid th

those of you who are tired of war, like all of us, i just want to go back to charlie wilson's war. the last scene in the movie was mr. wilson wanted $1 million to build some schoolhouses in afghanistan, and the reply was, "man, i've got broken schools in my state, in my district." and that's true in south carolina. it's true in kentucky. it's true in west virginia. but we had no soldiers in afghanistan and no aid to afghanistan during the taliban reign. that model did not work. if you think you can withdraw from the world and if you think america has no leadership role, then this is a good amendment. if you think the best thing america can do is invest in aid programs that help us as a nation be safer, then i would vote "no" to this amendment. president bush, one of his great legacies is that he invested in aids and mall hrar i can't programs -- malaria programs in africa that saved a generation of african children. the chinese are trying to buy up the african continent. what a time for america to tell the african people no longer will we help you, because if this amendment is pass
